5 Reasons Robin Van Persie Will Flop After Man United Transfer
One great season does not make a great player.
Robin Van Persie joined Arsenal in 2004, with the pressure of filling the boots of Gunners legend Dennis Bergkamp on his shoulders, and arguments with Feyenoord manager Bert Van Marwijk behind him.
A young talent compared to Marco Van Basten for his shooting and dribbling ability, the striker would battle new signing Jose Antonio Reyes for a spot in the Arsenal attack. But injuries, immaturity and poor finishing held Van Persie back as he tried to stake his claim as an Arsenal legend.
After battling with injury, form and competition for his place, the Dutchman finally unleashed his best work in the 2011-12 season, scoring 37 goals in 48 appearances and earning him a transfer to rival club Manchester United this summer for £24 million.
The pressure is massive, Old Trafford expectant. A long line of prolific strikers precedes him as he takes his place as a Manchester United forward.
